Differing Pattern of Sympathoexcitation in Normal-Weight and Obesity-Related Hypertension
Open accessAbstract
Hypertension in normal-weight and obese individuals is characterized by activation of the sympathetic nervous system. Measurement of spillover of the sympathetic transmitter, norepinephrine, to plasma indicates that the regional pattern of sympathetic activation in the 2 “variants” of essential hypertension differs, excluding the heart in obesity-related hypertension. Whether sympathetic nerve firing characteristics also differ is unknown. We studied multiunit and single fiber sympathetic nerve firing properties in patients with normal-weight hypertension and obesity-related hypertension, comparing these with nerve characteristics in normal-weight and obese people with normal blood pressure. Both normal-weight hypertensive (n=10) and obese hypertensive (n=14) patients had increased total multiunit muscle sympathetic nerve activity compared with the normal-weight (n=11) and obese (n=11) people with normal blood pressure (65±4 versus 47±6 bursts per 100 heartbeats, P <0.01 in the normal-weight groups and 68±4 versus 53±3 bursts per 100 beats, P <0.01 in the obese groups). Sympathetic activation in normal-weight hypertension was characterized by increased firing rate of single vasoconstrictor fibers (70±8 versus 28±3 spikes per 100 beats; P <0.001), increased firing probability per heartbeat (39±3% versus 20±3%; P <0.001), and higher incidence of multiple spikes per heartbeat (30±4% versus 17±4%; P <0.05). Sympathetic activation in obesity-related hypertension differed, involving recruitment of previously silent fibers, which fired at a normal rate. The pattern of sympathetic activation in normal-weight and obesity-related hypertension differs in terms of both the firing characteristics of individual sympathetic fibers and the sympathetic outflows involved. The underlying central nervous system mechanism and the adverse consequences of the 2 modes of sympathetic activation may differ.

“In lean hypertensive patients, the increase in sympathetic activity evident in multiunit burst number and size is because of an increase in the firing rate of individual single fibers, and to the common presence of firing salvos, multiple firings in a single cardiac cycle 31 (Figure 2).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
